The pantry is full of tinned tomatoes, tinned cocunut milk, rice, soup, beans and filters for the coffee machine. I'll survive.

A famous story in our household was how my German grandmother, right after WWII, traded a full length tablecloth that took her a year to crochet for one pound of butter and a dozen eggs so she make spritz cookies for Christmas.
Butter, uber alles!!!!

Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

I found 19 packets of honey mustard, about a third of a squeeze tube of mayonnaise, 2 eggs, some dried stuff at the bottom of the fridge that I couldn't identify but still looked like it could be boiled and eaten, and 239 packets of instant grits. I'm set for the apocalypse.
Ah. And part of a can of tuna that's not too brown yet, and about a pound of coffee grounds. Won't need to grocery shop for at least a week.

I should post a picture of my pantry; it's impressively wedged top to toe with stuff.

When the Apocalypse comes, I want to be the first to die.
It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

Our struggle is not against actual corrupt individuals, but against those in power in general, against their authority, against the global order and the ideological mystification which sustains it.

Re: Hurrah, The Butter Is Gone? Are you Prepared?
I don't think you can call what's coming anything religious. Why not call it what it is? A typical manmade fuck-up caused by not thinking things through properly? Hoping for the best is not a plan.

Zero. If the power goes out, we'll have to down the perishables in about 3 days. In the pantry there may be some pasta, rice, some dry beans, the remnants of some snacks, old cereal, a bag of flaxseeds, a small amount of coffee, tea, sugar and honey. Of course, if the power goes out, we'll have to cook the pasta and rice over an open flame. Problem is, I don't think we have any matches and we are fresh out of "flint and tinder." We have some wildlife in the preserve behind our place, but I do not own a gun or a fishing pole with which to catch any of it, and I haven't gutted anything but a fish ever, and it's been 30 years since I did that.
My guess is that we'd pack up the truck, and quietly proceed to a relative's house and hope for the best.
I couldn't be less prepared, I think. I have one extra pair of glasses. So, hopefully they won't break.
